    Garlic Shrimp OMG
    Frank B.

    Ok, hold the press's or social media posts cause if your not eating at this food truck your missing out. Frank B has dined & approved of this Thai Food truck in Kihei due to orgazmic dining experience served up in a bowl. YES folks I LOVE Thai Mee Up's culinary delights so much I've stopped counting I make my way to the truck. First off the truck itself looks clean & regal especially with the giant elephant located on the roof. It looks clean , smells clean and with the giant plasma TV's show you what's about to be served you'll feel safe about your choices. Simple order process and then after 10 mins your order is called out and ready for pick. Every dish I've dined on has its own taste signature and is rapturous to the body.. My top food choices is Garlic Shrimp ,Pad Thai with Shrimp and Ribeye & Lobster. Needless to say all items are sensational for the tastes buds and the costs are extremity priced out well for your budget. Come on and try a BIG BUDGET TASTE for a low budget cost.. I'm sure you'll agree with FRANK THIS OLACE IS GREAT !

    Drunken noodles

    Drunken noodles were flavorless - not spicy at all and with two very bite size pieces of chicken. Would not get again. (The other noodles are garlic noodles from another truck- would reccomend)

    Quite a long wait time here on a Saturday evening, so I highly recommend being ready for it! We were on a trip to Maui and husband really wanted some Thai food so we were pleasantly surprised to have gotten a good option here! They were only taking to go orders because we came in quite late and they seem to be very loaded with orders even that late into the night! They actually missed our order because we went there a good 30 minutes later and still didn't receive our food. So they were kind enough to give us a beverage on the house and rushed our order as well. They were also very apologetic for making his weird this long so we appreciate it. Overall, that pad Thai was delicious! Husband is a pad Thai connoisseur and he approved. Quite a big portion size too.

    Pad Kra Pao
    Asma I.

    Hands down one of the best Thai food trucks in Maui. Came here twice just to make sure the hype was real--and both times delivered the same top-tier experience. The Pad Kra Pao was exactly what you want: bold, spicy, and packed with flavor. The basil really came through, the chicken was juicy, and that fried egg on top balanced everything together perfectly over the rice. The Pad See Ew with chicken and shrimp was just as impressive--fresh, chewy noodles with that perfect char, balanced sauce, and a solid mix of veggies. Everything tasted super fresh and came out piping hot. Service was quick, friendly, and consistent both days. No misses here--this spot is the real deal. 5/5

    This is found in the South Maui Gardens. My kids and I loved it so much, we ate here twice during our stay. We had Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, the Simple Grill with lobster, and fried rice. The sauce served with the lobster? PHENOMENAL. I could drink that by itself. The kids loved the Pad See Ew. Customer service is super friendly and I thought they were quick in providing orders.

    I best Thai place to n Kīhei road. Located n South Maui Gardens. The place is an outside dining. Loved the ambiance. I got the Massana curry with mad veggies. So divine. The curry was a delicious that I ate the whole dish. The pumpkin veggie on it was so soft. Can taste he sweetness. Get Ahi plate with papaya pickled, Chinese broccoli and rice absolutely recommended. Don't miss it . Self service

    Pad see ew
    Bonnie S.

    Got the pad see ew here for lunch. It did not taste like authentic pad see ew. It was still good and had a good portion. I almost finished the whole thing. It was just more of a soy sauce flavor than anything. Traditionally there is an oyster sauce/ sugar flavor but I couldn't taste that. The service was good and pretty quick. My son got the Panang curry and really enjoyed it. I didn't get a chance to try it. There is lots of shaded seating nearby.

    Pad Thai chicken- HIGHLY RECOMMEND
    Shehla M.

    This location and this spot should be your GO TO SPOT for Thai food in Maui! Fantastic drunken noodles, and epic pad Thai!!! Wonderful service and extremely busy! A tough find considering there is a food truck area right in front of it! But trust your GPS, and head further back!!! This spot is located inside a beautiful garden oasis with live music. The ambiance shall NOT disappoint! Cheers Yelp friends! Now this was the Thai food I was searching for in Maui!

    Parang Red Curry with Chicken
    Nate L.

    We stopped by the Kihei location and the we ordered the Panang Red Curry with Chicken for myself and my wife had the Pad Thai with Shrimp. The dishes here are probably among the best Thai food we have had. It was piping hot and the Red Curry had a little heat, while the Pad Thai was mild, but a hit of heat near the end. Thai Mee Up was the busiest of all the food trucks here and it was obvious that their food was of a high quality. Very friendly service and they were handing out samples of a number of their grilled specialties. We will make this one of our go-to to places here!

    Chicken fried rice
    Nirmal R.

    Driving around trying to find a spot in a place you are new to and stumbled upon this gem! And I kid you not their food is restaurant level! Like OMG! My wife and I came here like 3 times in 5 days! We couldn't get enough! For a food truck they are definitely worth every penny! There are 2 locations we went to for them and both did not disappoint! They have tables out so you can sit and eat or else get it to go! We loved their food! We got the chicken fried rice and chicken pad Thai and both were delicious! We got the same thing every time! They do have a catchy name! We loved their food! Will definitely be back when we come back to visit Hawaii!

    Drunken noodles
    Avinash V.

    This is on a really nice neighborhood and a complex where there are plenty of food trucks with multiple options for you to choose à la cart and feast with your friends and family. There's a nice sit out area where you all can sit, but there is plenty of parking issues you need to find what before you get there . Coming back to the food here the food taste is delicious. It is amazing taste but the quantity was kid size. Literally kids can have this entire meal for the price I paid. If a person can spend 25 to 24 bucks for an entrée at least they don't want to go empty stomach or half stomach. If they can work on that that's great. The service was not too bad. It took us 20 minutes after we paid the bill to get the food.

    Not sure where to even start. I've heard so many good things about Thai mee up that we had to come!! We ordered the chicken and shrimp pad Thai and could not get enough! It was delicious! We would have ordered more food if we had room in our belly! 10/10!

He explained that he made the specials of the day while the regular menu was made inside the food truck. We were too full however tempted, and decided to go watch the sunset. But afterwards we wandered back to share a dish, and settled upon the beef special since we hadn't had any all trip. We had the smoked maminha tri-tip steak, Okinawa purple sweet potato, grilled maui onion and broccolini. Beautifully plated on real plates and silverware. No comparison to the so many common $21 food truck entrees and cost just a little more. The owner also is very sociable and enjoys talking about this food in a variety of languages with passers by and customers. On the far end from main entrance to the Kihei Food Oasis, or right at the other entrance, depending on how you enter. I wish we had found it earlier or we would have eaten there more than once!

The menu photo shows thick pieces of ono, and that's how they've always been served in the past. This time, the fish was paper thin and barely filled the bun. It definitely wasn't worth the price. I politely asked why the ono was so thin, and I was told, "They're sliders, that's why they're thin." I explained that I've ordered these many times before and they've never looked like this, but my concern was dismissed. I understand portions can vary, but this was a drastic difference from what I've received before. Loyal customers notice when quality and portions change. Unfortunately, after this experience, I won't be returning.

The truck itself is fun, painted with bright tropical colors and scenes, and they seem to be known for their loaded tots and bao buns. I placed my order on the touchscreen outside and then sat down to wait for my food. For lunch on this day I went with the buffalo chicken tots and the Island Piggy bao. The menu described the bao as kalua pork, BBQ sauce, tropical salsa, and pickled red onions. The buffalo chicken tots were described as buttermilk fried chicken, buffalo sauce, jack cheddar cheese, house made pickles, and ranch dressing. It took less than 10 minutes for my food to be ready and I sat down at one of the shaded picnic tables. When I opened everything up it all looked good, but I did notice that the tots were missing the house made pickles. I started with the bao and thought it was pretty good. The kalua pork was super juicy and the bao bun was light and fluffy while still holding together well. The pickled onions added a nice acidity and the tropical salsa brought good flavor. The only thing I did not notice much was the BBQ sauce. After that I dug into the tots. The tots themselves were cooked nicely with a crispy outside and soft inside. The chicken was good as well with a nice batter and the buffalo sauce added flavor while the cheese was gooey. The only thing worth noting is that the chicken was softer than expected and not very crispy. It worked since I did have the texture from the crispy tots, but it stood out. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. I would probably not order both a bao and tots again as it was a lot of food, but I would definitely come back for one or the other.

I got this both times. - the LITTLE PIGGY was good, but a little overhyped in my opinion. But good to try. - the DUCK DUCK GOAT was wildly disappointing. As you can see in the picture, all meat and almost nothing else. Maybe a few silvers of cabbage. But where's the goat cheese and the fig jam?!? We also got the ALOHA TOTS. Huge portion so that was nice. But the kalua pork was pretty watery and made the crispy tots go soggy pretty fast. Overall a solid spot. Definitely worth trying at least once.
